Put get/get_uts() into CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL code block as they are used
only when CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL is enabled.

sysctl: add support for poll()

2011-11-02T23:07:02+00:00

Adding support for poll() in sysctl fs allows userspace to receive
notifications of changes in sysctl entries.  This adds a infrastructure to
allow files in sysctl fs to be pollable and implements it for hostname and
domainname.

kernel: Map most files to use export.h instead of module.h

2011-10-31T13:20:12+00:00

The changed files were only including linux/module.h for the
EXPORT_SYMBOL infrastructure, and nothing else.  Revector them
onto the isolated export header for faster compile times.

Nothing to see here but a whole lot of instances of:

  -#include 
  +#include 

This commit is only changing the kernel dir; next targets
will probably be mm, fs, the arch dirs, etc.

sysctl kernel: Remove binary sysctl logic

2009-11-12T10:04:55+00:00

Now that sys_sysctl is a generic wrapper around /proc/sys  .ctl_name
and .strategy members of sysctl tables are dead code.  Remove them.

sysctl: remove "struct file *" argument of ->proc_handler

2009-09-24T14:21:04+00:00

It's unused.

It isn't needed -- read or write flag is already passed and sysctl
shouldn't care about the rest.

It _was_ used in two places at arch/frv for some reason.

proc_sysctl: use CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL around ipc and utsname proc_handlers

2009-04-03T02:05:01+00:00

As pointed out by Cedric Le Goater (in response to Alexey's original
comment wrt mqns), ipc_sysctl.c and utsname_sysctl.c are using
CONFIG_PROC_FS, not CONFIG_PROC_SYSCTL, to determine whether to define
the proc_handlers.  Change that.

sysctl: simplify ->strategy

2008-10-16T18:21:47+00:00

name and nlen parameters passed to ->strategy hook are unused, remove
them.  In general ->strategy hook should know what it's doing, and don't
do something tricky for which, say, pointer to original userspace array
may be needed (name).

Isolate the UTS namespace's domainname and hostname back

2007-11-29T17:24:53+00:00

Commit 7d69a1f4a72b18876c99c697692b78339d491568 ("remove CONFIG_UTS_NS
and CONFIG_IPC_NS") by Cedric Le Goater accidentally removed the code
that prevented the uts->hostname and uts->domainname values from being
overwritten from another namespace.

In other words, setting hostname/domainname via sysfs (echo xxx >
/proc/sys/kernel/(host|domain)name) cased the new value to be set in
init UTS namespace only.

Return the isolation back.
